Holy smokes you collect a ton of stuff! o_O I’m just worried my collection is becoming an “accumulation” rather than a collection. Things get...
I actually do have one book about ancient coins but it’s just Roman coins. But considering Roman coins are the ancient coins I like the most I...
I don’t know if those were minted during Aurelius’s reign. If so certain rare coins like that are 5 digits and I just couldn’t fork over that...
Thanks! Oh yeah I meant I was going to stick with one Emperor. I definitely could never get them all. I couldn’t even get a denarius for them...
Yeah it makes sense to me since it’s collecting the coinage of an Emperor. I’m just wondering if it’s something others have done or if it’s not...
I don’t mean what I mentioned before about trying to collect all the Emperors. That was my original goal.. Until I saw how much a denarius of...
I’m the same. My most recent purchase was the Quadrigatus I shared with everyone. I won it at auction on July 7th. Then I was pacing around...
Congrats! Trajan was my first denarius. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Trajan (AD 98-117). AR denarius (18mm, 7h). NGC XF. Rome, ca. AD 104-111. IMP TRAIANO...
Yay finally one I have! :] Didn’t most Emperors have beards? This is my Lucius Verus denarius I picked up a few weeks ago. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

It’s crazy! o_O Apparently almost every Emperor wanted to be the “Conqueror of the Germans”. I never noticed until I was looking at a collection...
Being easy to drop is just one example. Now am I going to drop a Morgan Dollar? Probably not. But a silver Roman denarius? Those are pretty...
The problem with that is you’re ignoring the evidence I’ve shared showing that’s not always the case. I’ve shared evidence showing cases where...
Thanks I appreciate it :). I don’t care if other people prefer raw coins. That’s their own choice and their own collection and they’re spending...
Well normally there wouldn’t be a problem and I would say “Well they’re more than refunding what he paid so that only proves what people are...
I started with a Trajan too xD Mostly because I wanted to start with the “5 Good Emperors” and Nerva was too expensive so I went with Trajan....
Well I am glad it worked out for you. But just remember not all auction houses are the same. Just because you had good luck in getting a refund...
That’s fine. You have that right.
You are very right! If someone on here says something that contradicts my own experience I do indeed tell them so. I may be relatively new but I...
Very nice! I love Persian darics. Where did you buy it?
